The Sixth Heavy Artillery-, being a three years' regiment, was mustered out June 25, 1865; but the re-enlisted veterans and the recruits whose terms were not yet out were formed into a battalion of four companies. The remaining members of the Tenth and Thirteenth Regiments of artillery, in the same condition, were added to the Sixth two days after; and the whole force remained in service till August 24, 1865, when they were finally mustered out.

The Sixteenth (Sprague Light) Cavalry closes the history of the connection of the county with the war. This force was consolidated with the Thirteenth New York Cavalry June 23, 186'), the consolidated regiment being known as the Thin! Provisional New York Cavalry, under which name it was mustered out September 21, 1865. The Roll of the Dead.-- I regret much that

there is no reliable official record accessible of the names of men, bona fide residents of the different towns in the county, who enlisted therefrom and died in the service. In some towns the patriotism of the pcoj)le in charge secured such a record ; but even then the papers are, in too many cases, cast aside in a mass of rubbish, impossible of extrication.

The following names are given from the town of Cortlandt, on the authority of Post Abraham Voshurgh, of Peekskill, No. 95, Department of New York, G. A. K.
